  • HT1386 my iPhone isnt showing up under 'devices' however, my iPod is. How can i make my iPhone sync to iTunes?

    My iPhone isn't connected to iTunes but the past few days it has been telling me to connect so I have tried but when I plug it in it doesn't show up under 'devices'. I thought maybe there was something wrong with my computer or iTunes so I plugged in my iPod. However, this synced to iTunes successfully. I don't know how to make my iPhone sync with iTunes but somehow I need to get this problem solved otherwise I will not be able to use my phone!
    Please help!

  • How can I make my iPad appear on iTunes?

    I've been trying to sync the music from my iTunes to my iPad for ages now, I don't know what else to do...
    It worked once but the music didn't sync.
    I've switched off my computer and iPad, I've take out the plug, I don't know what else to do....
    Help!!!!
    And additionally, my iTunes takes forever to switch on. It's the most updated iTunes, and it's frustrating me!!

    Hello Tamara,
    I have done the following:
    I took a back-up of my iPad on my PC.
    I reset my iPad to factory settings.
    I connect my iPad to my wife's Powerbook, and configured it as a 'new' iPad.
    I sync with some music from her Library (AAC endoded). When I open the iPod app on my iPad, the 'Composers' tab is there.
    I reset my iPad again, and now connect it to my PC.
    I restore my iPad.
    I sync with some music (AAC encoded) from my PC. The 'composers' tab has gone.
    Is there a difference in the syncing proces for music depending on the OS on which iTunes is installed?
    Best regards,
    Erik

    My Iphone 3gs wont charge, turn on, or restore itself in Itunes, but the apple logo still appears when I hold the sleep botton.  How can I make my Iphone work????  I know it is not dead because I can see the apple logo on, and every time I connect it to a USB port to charge, or a wall charger, the battery appears with a bit of red. Still, it wont turn on.  It's been like this for three days now and I haven't stopped charging it.  IT just WONT charge?  Any tips I can use to solve the issue?

    Hello estebie67,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like the iPhone is experiencing issues upon startup, and may not be loading the firmware or operating system correctly. If you have not already done so, try resetting the iPhone while connected to power:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If the above does not resolve your issue, it will be best to restore the iPhone in recovery mode:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

    Thanks,

  • I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 thing. But now my iphone's gmail inbox shows a random selection of emails (not most recent ones that are in my inbox). How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 capabilities. But now my iphone's gmail inbox only shows a random selection of emails (i.e. right now it is May 31, 2013 but the emails in my inbox are a couple from Nov 12, a few from Oct 12, and then some way older than that and so on.When I log into my gmail from a computer, I see all my emails in the logical, standard order. How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    If you're trying to decide between using POP and IMAP, we encourage you to use IMAP.
    Unlike POP, IMAP offers two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client. This means when you log in to Gmail using a web browser, actions you perform on email clients and mobile devices (ex: putting mail in a 'work' folder) will instantly and automatically appear in Gmail (ex: it will already have a 'work' label on that email the next time you sign in).
    IMAP also provides a better method to access your mail from multiple devices. If you check your email at work, on your mobile phone, and again at home, IMAP ensures that new mail is accessible from any device at any given time.
    Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing capabilities between your mail clients and your web Gmail.
    That is from the page that you linked- does highlighted part of message ring a bell?

  • On the moment that I connect the Iphone 5 on Windows 8, it is not recognized by Itunes, but actually it appears as a usual USB cable, or as a camera. And then I can't synchronize the Iphone 5 with Itunes. So, what do i do?

    Hi pedro109,
    If your iPhone is recognized by the computer, but not seen by iTunes, you may need to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service, as described in this article -

    Once iTunes recognizes the iPhone you should be able to sync it with iTunes. See this article
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad

  • I can't make my iphone 4 forget the hpsetup network which keeps showing up at work. My phone won't automatically connect to my company's wireless network.

    I can't make my iphone 4 forget the hpsetup network which keeps showing up at work. My phone won't automatically connect to my company's wireless network. I have to reselect it everytime I come to work.

    Settings/General/Reset - Reset network settings will "forget" all WiFi networks so you can select them again.
    If the problem with your company network is not solved by doing this, are there multiple sites that have the same network name for the company network? Or is it the default network name for the router type (e.g., DLINK, LINKSYS, etc)? If so, this is what is causing the problem and there is no solution other than convincing IT that it is a bad idea to have duplicate network names.

  • How can I make the iPhone beep every hour ?

    How can I make the iPhone beep every hour ?
    Just a beep not an alarm (alarms require an acknowledgement)

    I wanted this function as well and I just downloaded "BBClendar Free" and it works perfectly for this, better than an inexpensive digital watch!
    Just go to the Advanced section, enable the hourly beep and even set which hours (mine is 8 AM - 10 PM) and what minute of each hour it beeps on. Just be sure to leave the program open when you go on standby or it won't beep.
    As the App's description says, "Hourly Beep helps you to take a moment to rest in a busy day for every hour."
    Enjoy!

  • I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when i select the customer?

    I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when I select the customer?
    iselect the customer?

    Hi bazza,
    We won't be able to put the address from a formula into the same cell that you enter the customer's name. We can put the address in the cell under the customers name.
    First let's take James advice and concatenate the address in the address table.
    Here is the formula in G2
    =CONCATENATE(B2&"
    ",C2&"
    ",D2&"
    ",E2)
    It shows this way because after I clicked on B2 and typed [&"] (no brackets) I typed option-return
    This gives you your new line. Then I typed the closing ". I repeated this for the rest of the address.
    Next we want to bring this to your order sheet. I prefer using the two formulas OFFSET and MATCH instead of VLOOKUP.
    base tells OFFSETwhere to start counting from. Click A1.
    row-offset is for the row. we will use MATCH() -1 to give us the row.
    What MATCH does is give you the row number where something is found and you can specify an exact match. I usually construct the MATCH formula first and then cut and paste it into OFFSET. MATCH looks like this: MATCH(A2,Table 1::A,0). A2 is what we are looking for, Table 1A::A is where we are looking (the entire column A), and 0 means we want an exact match. Can you see it inside the OFFSET formula? Notice that we had to subtract 1 from its result.
    column-offset tells OFFSET which column A=0 so we want 6.
    we ignore "rows", "colomns" we don't need them.
    If this seems like too much, just break it down into small pieces.

  • How can I make an image appear partially in front and partially behind another layer in Adobe Illustrator?

    How can I make an image appear partially in front and partially behind another layer in Adobe Illustrator?

    Put the image behind the layer (at the back of it or on a layer below). With it still selected, Copy.
    Now Paste in Front (Ctrl+F). Depending on your Paste Remembers Layers setting, you may have to bring the newly pasted copy to the front, or to the upper layer.
    Draw a shape over the image to define the portion of it you want to appear "in front."
    With the shape and the image selected, clip the image using the shape. (Object > Clipping Mask > Make)

  • How can i make my iphone 4 compatible with other itunes?

    I put music on my phone using my computer and then try it with my friend's computer. It works fine everything goes well, but when i try using my computer again it makes me delete all of my music! how can i make it work with both itunes without deleting all of my music and having to start all over again??? H E L P  PLEASE!

    My thought exactly.  I would like to know why Apple designed it this way.  I think you should be able to manage your files on any computer with any product.  This has been my biggest gripe about Apple. If I have a song or photo on my desktop computer and want it on my iphone great.  I should also be able to take that song or photo from my iphone and put it on my laptop at work. Hmmmm.
